Terms of Use

1. Agreement to these terms

These terms govern your use of this website and the inquiry service made available through it. By using the website or submitting an inquiry, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

The website is operated by SinoSourceLink, an independent sourcing practice based in China. The operator has not published a registered company name or full postal address; a business address can be requested through the contact email.

2. Informational purpose

The website describes sourcing and procurement support services and provides general industrial information. It is not an online store, marketplace, product catalogue, engineering advisory service or certification service. Product descriptions are capability guides; they do not constitute an offer, warranty or statement of availability.

3. Inquiries are not orders

Submitting an inquiry starts a conversation. It does not create a purchase order, agency agreement, contract of sale or obligation for either party to proceed. Any sourcing engagement is subject to a separate written agreement covering scope, fees, responsibilities and commercial terms.

An inquiry ID confirms that a request was received. It does not confirm that a product can be sourced, that a supplier is available, or that a particular price or lead time will be offered.

4. User responsibilities

• Provide accurate contact details and a truthful description of your requirement.
• Only upload files you have the right to share, and do not upload malicious code or unlawful content.
• Do not use the site to send spam, scrape data, probe security, or interfere with other users.
• Do not misrepresent your identity, company or authority to act on behalf of a business.
• Protect any confidential information you choose to share, and use appropriate agreements before disclosing sensitive designs.

5. Fees and commercial terms

No fee is charged for submitting an inquiry. If a sourcing project proceeds, fees are agreed separately and confirmed in writing before sourcing work begins. We may work on a procurement margin or a transparent service fee, depending on the project.

The website does not process payments, hold funds, arrange credit or provide escrow. Any payment arrangement is agreed directly between the relevant parties and documented in the applicable contract.

6. Third-party information and links

The site may refer to third-party standards, products, organisations or websites. References are for context and do not imply endorsement, partnership or certification. Third-party websites have their own terms and privacy practices, and we are not responsible for their content.

7. Intellectual property

The website design, text, layout, graphics and original content are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may view and print pages for your internal business evaluation. You may not republish, resell, scrape or systematically copy the content without written permission, except where a licence or applicable law expressly permits it.

Product names, standards and trademarks belong to their respective owners. Photography is used under the licences recorded in the project asset register and is illustrative unless explicitly stated otherwise.

8. No warranties

The website and its content are provided on an “as available” basis. To the extent permitted by law, we disclaim warranties of accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. Industrial information can change, and product specifications must be confirmed for each inquiry.

9. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss arising from use of the website or reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded. Any liability connected with a sourcing engagement is governed by the separate project agreement.

10. Suspension and access

We may suspend or restrict access to the site or inquiry service where we reasonably believe there is abuse, a security risk, a legal requirement or a breach of these terms. The administrative area is restricted to authorised users and is protected by access controls.

11. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle inquiry information. It forms part of these terms.

12. Changes

We may update these terms as the service or legal requirements change. The date at the top shows the latest revision. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised terms.

13. Governing law and contact

These terms are intended to be governed by the laws of the People's Republic of China, with jurisdiction in the competent courts of the operator's place of business, unless mandatory consumer protections in your country provide otherwise. The operator should obtain legal review of this clause before relying on it.
